This Week # 3-29

This Week in OFF ROAD we started our summer series titled, “Hessid.” This is the Hebrew word for God’s love and really has a deeper, more powerful meaning than the love that we think about. This love can be described as steadfast, graceful, merciful, faithful, loyal, good, devote, unfailing, relentless, pursuing, lavish, extravagant, unrestrained and so much more. We will be spending the entire summer looking at aspects of God’s love because He first loved us. The talk this week focused on the fact that if our motivation for following Christ comes from doing what our parents say or just doing what we think is right and not form a love from God and for God that motivation will disappear. We need to understand God’s love so that we can be continually motivated to follow His call.
(1 John 4:7-19) (John :1-5)
